Silk: Cross Stitch Patterns vs Cross Stitch Saga

An honest comparison based on real user reviews. Both are popular Cross Stitch Coach apps — but which one do users complain about less?

Silk: Cross Stitch Patterns

Main Weakness

Data loss and sync failures combined with unresponsive support

"All the patterns that I bought for the past couple of years were all gone. Some of them have progress already and they all disappeared and I can't seem to recover them"
"It doesn't sync purchases"

Cross Stitch Saga

Main Weakness

Incompatible with standard pattern formats and major designers

"if you buy patterns off etsy, don't use this app. 99% of sellers don't give you the file types this app offers because svg and pdf are standard. converting them to the files this app requires is impossible"
"Doesn't work with Modern Folk Embroidery, Witchy Stitcher or HAED. Not one of my cross stitch charts I own will load into this app"
